why wouldn’t you just convert inline? (Number(input_val) === 2)

Converting would mean you could use a switch statement with your example rather than an if else ladder

<span style="color:#323232;">switch(Number(input_val)) {
</span><span style="color:#323232;">  case 1:
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    doTheFirstThing();
</span><span style="color:#323232;">  break;
</span><span style="color:#323232;">  case 2:
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    doTheSecondThing();
</span><span style="color:#323232;">  break;
</span><span style="color:#323232;">  case 3:
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    doTheThirdThing();
</span><span style="color:#323232;">  break;
</span><span style="color:#323232;">}
</span>
